Our team takes the time to hear your ideas, envision your perfect event with you, implement our shared plan, and ensure everyone enjoys our hospitality from start to finish. Our focus on aesthetics means we plate and garnish food on white china platters and wood instead of just dropping off disposable aluminum pans for you to figure out!

No rubbery chicken breasts here; our food is the star...after you!

We are onsite from the venue walk-through to the last moment of cleanup and tear down.

    Outstanding from start to finish

    We hired Hausfrau Catering specifically for their German cuisine expertise, and Kristin exceeded expectations in every respect. Her communication was clear, friendly, and thoughtful from start to finish. Despite working against wind and rainstorms at our outdoor venue, she delivered an outstanding experience that kept our guests talking long after the celebration ended. We even found ourselves joking about throwing another party just so we could have her recipes again. What really impressed us was her genuine attention to detail, both in the food and guest experience. She also thoughtfully accommodated guests with allergies and vegetarian preferences so everyone could enjoy the meal. We'd absolutely work with Hausfrau again.

    Amazing!

    Hausfrau Catering (Kristin) was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, her communication was great and she was such a sweetheart! Kristin was so easy to work with and the food she provided was literally amazing. The quality of her food was unmatched - we received so many compliments from our guests on how amazing the food was! She truly contributed to making our wedding day perfect. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

    Such an amazing meal!

    Kristin absolutely knocked it out of the park for our wedding! During our initial consultation, I mentioned my love (and nostalgia) for authentic Italian food and my husband’s and my shared love of oysters. Not only did Kristin set us up with an incredible raw oyster bar, but she also managed to create a top-notch linguini alle vongole for over 90 guests — all in a very limited kitchen. Truly impressive! The service was just as amazing. From the moment we arrived at the venue, the staff made sure we never went without food or a drink in hand. They were attentive without being intrusive — at one point, I whispered to my husband, “I’m hot,” and seconds later a fan showed up out of nowhere. It’s those thoughtful touches that made the night feel so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better caterer — Kristin and her team made our day unforgettable. Thanks again!

    Worth Every Penny!

    From start to finish, Hausfrau Catering was a true pleasure to work with. Kristen and her team were incredibly proactive, organized, and accommodating throughout the entire planning process. On the day of our wedding, the quality of their work was exceptional - the food was absolutely delicious, beautifully arranged and displayed, and freshly prepared. Their team of support staff, from bartenders to servers and kitchen staff, were all incredibly attentive, kind, and professional. They even made sure my husband and I got to try a little bit of everything, despite our busy evening itinerary. Thanks to Hausfrau Catering, we had a truly unique and amazing wedding experience. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Amazing Wedding Caterer!

    Where do I begin! I highly recommended Kristin and her team for your catering needs. She catered our wedding of 45 people and weeks later we are still being complimented by guests at how great the food and drink service was. She provided a mix of German and American food and was flexible in providing meals we wanted. It was our dream menu! The food was served buffet style with appetizer, entrees and desserts. She provided decor and florals that matched our wedding theme. The food was flavorful, perfectly cooked and fresh. She cooked some of the food on site and it was not soggy at all. She properly packaged all leftovers for us and we were pleased eating her food the days after our wedding. We had to edit the date about a month before our wedding - completely our fault for not telling her sooner - yet she was able to make it all work without any hiccup in service. She provided a bartender, coffee, tea, some mixers and signature cocktails while we provided the alcohol and other mixers. It all was a seamless combination. We researched dozens of caterers to meet our budget and desired quality and she surpassed all our expectations. She is very thorough and we appreciated all her questions to make the wedding day as stress-free as possible. Her and her entire team were so accommodating and a pleasure to work with. All our guests enjoyed the day and her service and team were a big part of it. We will be using her again for any catering needs. We will forever be grateful to her and her team!

Hi! We'd love to send a menu! It's best to have a 10 minute conversation first about your vision/vibe/aesthetics, likes & dislikes, dietary restrictions & allergies, and your venue's amenities. Most of my clients have fully customized menus according to their theme, diverse backgrounds and heritage, or favorite foods. I don't want to send a generic Italian menu if you want Asian Fusion, lobster and caviar when you need cost-effective foods, or promise a 150 person chef-plated dinner with fried foods when the venue's kitchen doesn't allow onsite frying and has no heat lamps. I won't offer foods that will lose quality! Call me?
I never want cost to be a factor in my couples achieving their desired menu, so I get creative. For example, a couple desires a representation of their Maryland heritage with authentic MD crabcakes...but can't afford them as an Entree. Then we do a limited amount of mini crabcakes as an Appetizer! Pricing per item doesn't always work because of scaling. If you pick only 3 items for your menu, I provide more of each at a higher cost per person than if you have 10 total menu items (smaller amounts, lower cost pp). After our call, I'll send menu items that suit your theme and venue. We add/remove items to curate a perfect menu within budget!
Don't hassle with hunting down the correct rentals, showing up early and waiting for load in and load out. I can't have you or your family running around sweating in dress clothes on the big day! We’ll make sure you have various sizes of tables, linens, runners, napkins, dinnerware, chafing, decor, bars, coffee service, chairs, and high end extras like lounge areas and luxury restroom trailers. I even have a 20' mobile commercial kitchen!
My Servsafe Certification is current, I operate a Pennsylvania Inspected Food Service Facility, and I carry full Insurance. I'm happy to provide proof and custom Certificates of Insurance as you and your venue require!
No worries! I operate a fully inspected and insured 20' mobile kitchen with refrigeration, stovetop, double decker french door ovens, fryer, hot box for holding, and more. You can rent it and be assured that your guests will receive the freshest, most flavorful food instead of rewarmed leftovers, or food just left sitting over sterno....no soggy fried foods! Pricing starts at $2000 for round trip transportation, generator, setup, use, and cleanup.
Some caterers do provide a drop off of hot food. Imagine med rare steak and tender chicken breast beautifully cooked in the morning (or day before), heated up and transported hot for at least an hour, held warm at your location an hour before your ceremony (if that's even possible), or roasting over sterno in a chafing dish for guests to begin eating at Cocktail Hour and hours later at the Reception. Ever wonder why mass produced food at wedding is a rubbery chicken breast and overdone, shoe leather steak? That's why, because a caterer brought it hot and it sat for hours losing quality. I refuse to offer food like that!
I have several on Google if you search "Hausfrau Catering Felton PA" and on my Facebook as well! I am also happy to put you in touch with my former bridal couples.
I think it's best said, "I'd rather I be excluded for who I include {at my table} than included for who I exclude." As a third generation Army brat and travel bug, I have been in many parts of the world from Italy to Russia. Most of my childhood friends were biracial with parents from different countries. I have close friends on all kinds of spectrums. I see people as humans first, and honestly I'm intensely curious about their cultures. I want to know what it's like to be you, what do your Grandparents cook, what makes you come alive, and how your people celebrate? Diversity makes us better; no room for hate here! Congrats on finding love!
If you have a small wedding (10-50 people) and require only my personal chef services and a helper, I am willing to travel up to 3 hours from Winterstown, PA and may require overnight accommodations to be available. If you have a large wedding of say, 200 guests, it would likely be cost prohibitive to me to pay staff to travel beyond 1.5 hours of Winterstown, PA. We'd probably need 4 kitchen staff, 10 servers for setup/serving (even buffet)/bussing/cleanup/teardown, and 3-4 bartenders. A plated dinner can take 1 server for 12 guests. I prefer not to use staffing Apps/Agencies etc. due to poor experiences in the past.
I do offer a complimentary tasting of two menu items after a deposit is made. If you are not comfortable making a deposit before the tasting (which I totally get), let's plan a personal chef dinner in your home. I can come to you for a five course dinner with a cocktail, perhaps with parents, friends, or decision makers, starting at $120 pp and up. I do not have a running inventory of set menu items to pull from and drop off, as many restaurant/catering businesses do. Each menu is unique, and I personally shop for and prepare each dish fresh from scratch. Let's plan a dinner and get to know each other before planning the big day!
